The body lives in a lovely space that we seldom notice. We see the wider space around us but not the more intimate space close at hand. The cocoon makes this intimate space known by reminding us of the body's curves and angles and distances and form. It is from this space that we reach out exposed into the world. That reach is not without tension. There are physical and emotional boundaries that we push against when we move from private to public, hidden to revealed. Sometimes we break free; sometimes not.

Portions of the Cocoon Series have been published internationally in Lenswork, Adore Noir, and Shadow and Light. Many of these images are available for purchase.
